Since 2008, and even more since 2018 and 2023, private equity firms have been buying up real estate and rental properties across the U.S. No firm has preyed up on peoples' precarity more than private equity firm Blackstone. The fimr is the largest landlord in the United States by... a LOT. It owns 100,00 more rental units than its next closest competitor. In our latest, Scott talks with Jordan Ash, the housing director at the Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) about private equity, Blackstone and the housing crisis. Bio//Jordan Ash lives in Minnesota and has worked for over twenty-five years doing community and labor organizing. He currently leads the housing work for the Private Equity Stakeholder Project , a nonprofit watchdog organization focused on the impacts of private equity firms, hedge funds, and similar Wall Street firms on workers and communities. Prior to this, he spent more than a decade doing research and strategic campaigning for labor unions, and over a dozen years working for the community organization ACORN, where he played a leading role in the group's campaign against predatory mortgage lending.------------------------------------------

Today we will perform a financial autopsy of the Left. Where do they get all that money?They certainly don't work for it. These people go from poverty to the penthouse faster than any other group on earth except African generals who overthrow their governments.Then again, in 2020 we had our own coup and clearly a LOT of Democrats got filthy rich during the 4 years that ensued.Democrats have been using our money against us for DECADES. When the team I was on exposed ACORN, we didn't realize that situation was a pimple on an elephant's butt of the corruption inside our government.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Labour's homelessness minister, Rushanara Ali, has resigned from government after it emerged she evicted four tenants from a property she owns - before re-letting it just weeks later and hiking the rent by £700 a month. The move would likely be prohibited under Labour's Renters' Rights Bill, which introduces new protections for tenants. When Labour's Renters' Rights Bill comes into force, this action will be illegal. We hear from The Standard's Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford, and Anny Cullum, political officer with the community and renters union ACORN. And in part two, journalist Arielle Domb investigates why people are administering their own botox cosmetic treatments. What's behind the DIY movement, and what are the risks? Hosted on Acast.

The National Pension Helpline has this morning launched the first ever online pension comparison platform in Ireland, which tracks the performance of hundreds of pension funds. The Irish Pension Fund Explorer is a free comparison tool with real-time data on 597 pension funds, aimed at promoting transparency within the industry and allowing people to make better investment decisions. The searchable database can be used to compare each fund's growth, risk exposure, where their assets are located, and the holding companies involved. It provides clear comparisons between two or more funds with interactive graphs and charts, allowing savers to view multiple funds' value and performance side by side, as well as other key stats such as management fees. Irish Pension Fund Data Resource Various funds from the same pension provider can also be pitted against each other to compare how each fund is faring, with users being able to toggle between different timeframes to get a clear picture of performance over time. There are ten significant pension fund operators in Ireland: Zurich, Irish Life, Aviva, New Ireland, Standard Life, Mercer, Acorn, Royal London, BOI and AIB. Those wishing to invest have needed to go to each provider individually or ask a broker to help them compare funds - whereas the Pension Fund Explorer allows people to view every portfolio from every provider available in Ireland in one location. The tool is free and no registration or personal details are required, giving everyone equal access to the data. Speaking at the launch, James Dorrian, Managing Director of the National Pension Helpline, said: "This new platform is a major milestone in making the pension industry more transparent and easier for the public to navigate the hundreds of funds that are available. "The National Pension Helpline was set up out of frustration for how hard it is for the average person in Ireland to get the information they need when it comes to investing in their pension. "This first-of-its-kind public resource allows users to compare the performance, asset allocations and risk profiles of hundreds of individual pension funds. "We believe that this data should be freely available without people having to trudge through and compare hundreds of documents, and the Fund Explorer enables people to compare every fund under one roof. "Investing in the wrong fund can cost you in retirement, and similarly, smart investments have a compounding effect which means that even monthly contributions can grow into a substantial pension pot in the future. "We make no claims that past performance can predict future outcomes, however, our independently sourced data can certainly give people a taste of how each fund is performing against other funds, either from the same provider or different providers."

Phew!  Acorn has been a schwetty puddle lately... Chores are sporadic- out for an hour then back in to recover.  Driving up to the post office is a lovely way to cool down, according to Acorn...  Driving ANYWHERE has been better than melting.  Blind Hog and Acorn took the kiddos to Crystal Bridges to see the KAWS exhibit.  Was a good way to spend a very hot day.Roses have been procured, marked down 50%.  JUST what a farm needs, lol... They are very fragrant, look like an old time rose.Sunshades on both tractors- look right "store bought."  $100, plus $4.89 for two bolts was all it cost for both. #themoreyouknow...

He is supposed to be one of the smartest men alive, I would be disappointed he didn't have a multi layered schemeThe only thing Mr terrific and Lois actually do is show Superman where the exit is the only actual physical combat Mr terrific did was punch a bunch of goons outside the portal Lois and the others in the space ship didn't actually do a single thing to help in the moment they literally just watched the fight while writing an article about lex being a bad guy Superman's “hero friends” didn't really help him that much like green lantern and hawkgirl helped stop the war in the Middle East while Superman was dealing with the world cracking open in metropolis The dog literally just ate a bunch of cameras that lex was using to pretty much control the evil Superman that's all he actually didHow was Lois a bigger hero she literally just wrote a paper about lex which jimmy olsen actually wrote more of honestly, so if he wants to say that Lois was a bigger hero than you can pretty much

After a fun filled week on the farm, nothing says "let's take it easy" better than attending a "No Kings" protest in a strongly Republican town. Blind Hog and Acorn were flipped the bird several times, several pro-Trump drivers kept coming back, honking their horns, letting loose with air horns.  Not sure if they knew that their behavior was exactly what the other folks were doing while driving to support the protestors!Hot, humid, almost daily rain showers.  Garden is really going crazy.  A powerwasher uncovered the overgrown brick patio at the Springfield house.  Still a bunch of work to be done on that.  Strawberry mooooon was lovely!

ABOUT THIS EPISODE Learning and loving to read is a journey for every child. Today, we're focusing on that particular moment when a child is building their reading confidence to make a leap from picture books to chapter books. It's an exciting time, but it's also high stakes: it presents a small window that can either launch a child into a love of reading on their own or intimidate them if they find it overwhelming. That's where Scholastic comes in. In today's episode, former elementary school teacher and current Editorial Director of Scholastic's Acorn early readers and Branches early chapter books lines, Katie Carella, is back in the studio with guest-host Billy DiMichele to talk about this magical moment in a child's literacy journey. And joining the podcast for the first time is Bernard Mensah, author of beloved Branches series Kwame's Magic Quest. Over the years, Branches has helped grow so many readers through highly illustrated, early chapter books that kids devour. Currently with 58 million books in print and 34 published series, the line has experienced a “meteoric” rise since we last spoke about this important line in 2019 when it had about 17 million books and about 25 series in print. Listen on to find out what's behind this meteoric rise, to get a glimpse of Kwame's magical world, and to learn about Bernard's passion for writing for the Branches age group and representing Ghanaian culture in children's books. And stay to the end for a read aloud sneak peek! →Resources About Branches: https://www.scholastic.com/site/branches.html About Kwame's Magic Quest: https://www.scholastic.com/site/branches/kwame-s-magic-quest.html Fuse #8 Blog Review from Betsy Bird: https://afuse8production.slj.com/2025/02/04/the-fast-paced-page-turning-adventure-series-thats-a-celebration-of-african-cultures-bernard-mensah-discusses-kwames-magic-quest/ More listening: Scholastic Reads!

Growing Readers with Branches and Acorn from 2019! →Highlights _Katie Carella: Editorial Director, Acorn & Branches, Scholastic _ “Having been a 1st-3rd grade teachers myself, I'm always excited to talk about that very exciting point in a child's reading journey where they begin to read books independently. You get to see that light go off and it's just the best feeling ever.” “All of the Branches books have a second grade reading level. But the books all feature really rich, layered plots so they do appeal to children across many grade levels. From Kindergarten, I'd say up through fourth and even fifth grade, especially now with reading levels behind where they should be. So it's more important than ever to have these “high-low” books. These books are high-interest, layered plots and yet written at a lower reading level.” “If a child chooses a book that's too easy for them the child can speed through it and they gain fluency and stamina. If they choose a book that's slightly too hard for them, the child might struggle, but if they want to read they will do the work. And they'll learn decoding skills along the way. So both experiences ultimately grow a child's vocabulary and their reading skill set.” “The accolades [for Kwame's Magic Quest] keep coming in…it was highlighted on Betsy Bird's Fuse #8 blog…I just wanted to say a quote she had in her blog, ‘it's amazing how much story Mensah and Nayo [the illustrator] are able to pack into this thing.' You are getting this really rich and magical world that Bernard has created but in this really digestible format.” _Bernard Mensah, Author, Kwame's Magic Quest _ “[Kwame's Magic Quest] has got that mix of authenticity, friendship, lots and lots of magic, some peril and danger, there's evil magicians and spells. I think it brings together a lot of things that you would typically find exciting if you wanted to read a book about magic or an epic adventure.” “[on working with the illustrator Natasha Nayo] Having an illustrator who came from the same background who understands the cultural context of some of things that I was trying to put across, I could rely on the art to do some of the talking for me. She brought her own unique flare.” “My son, when he was about five years old, I remember looking at his bookshelf and thinking to myself, well, I've managed to find stories for him or write something that speaks to his culture at every age. Where is the book that speaks to him from five to eight years old? And I couldn't find it so foolishly I thought to myself, well, I'll write it. And that's where the idea for Kwame's Magic Quest came from.” On what the characters would do over summer break, “By the end of the summer they would probably save the world again because that's what they do in every book. They come close to not doing it but they find a way to rally together and make magic safe again for everybody.” →Special Thanks Producers: Anne Sparkman, Allyson Barkan, and Maxine Osa Sound engineer: S.

Barney Reason is a recovering food addict who has also overcome addictions to alcohol, drugs, and compulsive behaviors. His journey began early—he had his first drink at age 7 and got sober from alcohol by 25 years old. But as the alcohol stopped, his food addiction escalated, leading him to a peak weight of 365 pounds.  Barney grew up in a deeply unstable environment, marked by abuse, neglect, and chaos—he lived in 16 different homes in 16 years. As a child, his emotions, especially anger, were not welcomed or validated. In response, he turned to food, substances, and compulsive behaviors to soothe his anxiety and numb his pain.  For years, Barney sought relief from overwhelming feelings, not realizing that the intensity of his emotions was part of being human. Today, he embraces those feelings, knowing they pass, and feels more alive than ever.  Barney's recovery has been long and difficult, but he now uses his experience to help others find hope and healing through 12-step recovery. Barney became a Certified Food Addiction Professional (https://infactschool.com/treatment-certification-program/) through the the INFACT School (https://infactschool.com/) He is on staff at SHiFT, Recovery by Acorn (https://foodaddiction.com/) a food addiction treatment program which is committed to supporting people recover from food addiction and lead better lives.    He helps with SHiFT's Intensive Treatment program, where attendees learn to experience sobriety from addictive eating, along with the incredible new freedom.    Barney Reason's story is a powerful testament to resilience, transformation, and the possibility of achieving lasting freedom from addiction, as well as the gifts of helping others recover.

In this illuminating conversation, astrologer Mark Jones joins host Tony Howard to explore the profound philosophical contributions of Dane Rudhyar to modern astrology. They discuss how Rudhyar's humanistic approach transformed predictive astrology into a tool for self-actualization and spiritual growth.Mark explains how Rudhyar, influenced by 20th century psychology and his background as a classical composer, developed key concepts including the "seed principle" and cyclical time. They explore how Rudhyar viewed birth charts not as static deterministic blueprints but as symbolic representations of potential that unfolds through time—comparing it to an acorn containing the pattern for the oak tree it might become.This episode offers valuable insights into how Rudhyar's vision of astrology as "a yoga with one's destiny" continues to influence contemporary astrological practice, providing a framework that balances cosmic patterns with human agency. Perfect for both astrology enthusiasts and those interested in the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and cosmic symbolism.
